I was a swordsman in ancient Japan

"Miss A-Machi" Azuki blushed slightly, looking at A-Machi's bare arms and back, and asked in a soft voice, "You won't feel chilly on your back in this dress, it's very not comfortable?"

"Although it does feel chilly when the weather is cold, but it will be very comfortable to wear this dress when the weather is hot." A-Machi smiled at Azuki.

With a dazed face, Ah Qing vigorously shook her head to shake off the water droplets on her hair and face.

"Ah Ching! Ah Ching! How are you doing?"

The voice of his best friend Jiezheng came from beside him.

"Jiezheng?" Ah Qing turned her head following the sound, and saw Jiezheng who was being tied up and dripping wet.

After looking at Jiezheng, Ah Qing looked down at herself again. She is also tied up, dripping wet like a drowned rat.

Ah Qing looked around and found that she was in a strange room, surrounded by 3 strange men in front of her.

These three men, who are quite unfamiliar to Ah Qing, naturally asked Shimada to inform Genichi that "the prisoner has awakened", and stayed to continue to guard Jiezheng and Ah Qing's Mamiya, Makimura, and Asai.

"There is really no more convenient way to wake people up than splashing water on them." Asai sighed softly, throwing the empty bucket in his hand aside.

why am i here

Ah Qing frowned slightly, trying to "restore" her memory.

The memory fragments before coma came to Ah Qing's mind one by one like bubbles spit out by a fish.

Following Jiezheng to catch a woman suspected to be Shura's wife, she was attacked by unknown persons and knocked unconscious by a blow

Ah Qing, who had "restored" her memory, immediately changed her expression, and looked at the three strangers in front of her with vigilant eyes.

At this time, the sliding door of the room was suddenly opened.

The people who entered the door were Genichi, Machi and others who had changed their clothes.

"Already awake." Yuan Yi only glanced at Jiezheng and Ah Qing, then looked away, "It's not too late, let's start."

"Yes." 4

After Mamiya, Makimura, Asai, and Shimada said "yes" in unison, they immediately divided into two teams.

Mamiya and Asai work together to drag Ah Qing out, while Mucun and Shimada stay in this room.

"What are you going to do!" Seeing that Ah Qing was being carried outside the house, Jie Zheng immediately growled and struggled to get up.

"Don't move around." Mucun rushed forward, pressed Jiezheng very roughly, and then worked together with Shimada to tie Jiezheng to a piece of tatami they had just removed.

His limbs were tied to the four corners of the tatami, and then a clean cloth was placed over his face.

After completing this series of arrangements, Mu Cun ordered Shimada:

"Pour water."

"Okay, okay." Shimada swallowed hard, then took a bucket full of water next to him with a slightly stiff movement, took a scoop of water, and poured it on Jiezheng's face.

While pouring water on Jiezheng's face covered with cloth, Mucun kept pressing Jiezheng's head firmly to prevent him from moving.

When the water just poured on Jiezheng's face, Jiezheng could still resist the discomfort.

But after only a moment, Jiezheng began to struggle and groan in pain.

This is exactly the method of torture that Mucun realized through interrogating suspects together when he was Yuli in Kyoto, which would make the tortured extremely painful: waterboarding.

Last summer, Mucun used this method to torture the enemy and successfully obtained a lot of information.

This method of torture is more painful than simple punching and kicking.

After making Jiezheng feel the feeling of suffocation at any time for a while, Mucun signaled Shimada to stop watering.

"Painful?" Mucun lifted the cloth covering Jiezheng's face, "If you don't want to suffer like this again, just answer our question who are you? Who is instigating you?"

Jie was coughing forcefully, his nose and saliva dripping all over his face.

However, despite his embarrassed appearance, Jiezheng's eyes were still sharp, glaring at Mucun and Shimada viciously.

"You feel cough cough! I will just cough like this! Tell you cough cough!"

"Well, I think so." Mucun put the cloth back on Jiezheng's face, "Shimada, continue to water."

A similar scene was happening outside the room.

Ah Qing was taken to the other side of the temple where Jiezheng's torture could not be heard, and she was tortured at a place far away from Jiezheng.

Gamiya and Asai worked together to let her "drink enough" water, and Asai lifted the cloth covering Ah Qing's face.

"Why are you Iga ninjas here? Who is your mastermind? As long as you answer our questions obediently, you will stop suffering!"

Ah Qing is younger than Jie Zheng.

After she glanced at Mamiya and Asai with disdain, she closed her eyes silently and ignored Mamiya and Asai without saying a word.

"As expected of a ninja." Mamiya on the side said lightly, "The mouth is not usually strict."

"Then I'll see how long she can last. We're in a hurry." Asai put the facecloth back on Ah Qing's face, and then poured water on Ah Qing's face.

When A-machi, Genichi and the others were interrogating Susaka and Aharu

Osaka, Ryusuji Temple

"Jijiu! Jiku!" A woman in full dress walked towards him quickly, holding the hem of her kimono.

"It's Mrs. Luo." Ji Jiu, who was standing by the window with his hands behind his back, turned around slowly, "What's the matter?"

This woman, whom Ji Jiu called "Lao Woman", was about 30 years old.

The pretty facial features are covered with bewitching heavy makeup, and she is wearing exaggerated and luxurious costumes like an oiran. Her head is full of black hair and is pulled into the hairstyle of a noble lady, and her hair is full of various decorations.

She was obviously a woman with such a coquettish appearance and dress, but her tone of voice was extremely rude.

"Jijiu! I'm fucking bored to death! When will I be able to give my mother some tasks?"

"Lao woman." Ji Jiu said indifferently, "Be safe and don't be impatient. When I need you to appear, I will naturally let you appear."

"Even for a moment, I want to serve Lord Toyotomi as soon as possible! I want to help Lord Toyotomi as soon as possible!" The burning woman seemed to be itchy all over, raising her hands to scratch the skin on all parts of her body vigorously, her face Show pain.

"If you obediently obey my command, you are showing your loyalty to Lord Toyotomi and helping Lord Toyotomi."

"Hey! Jijiu!" Mrs. Lao's expression suddenly became fierce, and several veins popped out on her neck, "The words you just said about Lord Toyotomi were not respectful enough! Not respectful enough!! How can you address Toyotomi-sama in such a weak tone!"

Ji Jiu ignored Mrs. Lao's hysterical roar, and turned her body with her hands behind her back, facing the window next to her, looking at the night view of Osaka full of flames outside the window.

"In short, you wait for me obediently. I assure you, I will give you the task as soon as possible."

"No way!" the branding woman shouted without thinking, "I'm getting bored!"

"Saiweimon and the others are now looking for that Ogata Issai, but they haven't found it until now? Why don't you let me join the search!"

"No." Yoshihisa said lightly, "Don't make me repeat it so many times, just wait for me obediently. Search for Ogata Ittosai, and Saemon and others are enough."

The baked woman opened her mouth, just about to say something more.

But as soon as she opened her mouth, Ji Jiu blocked her mouth with one sentence:

"Lord Toyotomi has given me full authority to command the frontline of this battle."

"You probably don't want me to report to Lord Toyotomi in the future: Mrs. Lao doesn't listen to my command at all, right?"

Jijiu's words made Mrs. Lao's expression suffocate, and all the words she wanted to say were swallowed back.

"Hmph!" The woman gnashing her teeth, "You are more favored by Mr. Toyotomi than my old lady! You are so arrogant!"

After leaving a lot of obscenities, Mrs. Lao left cursingly.

After Mrs. Luo left, the room finally became quiet.

It didn't stay quiet for long, however.

"Master Jijiu."

Not long after Mrs. Luo left, a female voice came from behind Ji Jiu again.

But this time the female voice was much gentler and more pleasant than the woman's voice.

"It's Chuguang."

It is different from the indifference with Mrs. Luo just now.

With a faint smile on his face at this time, Ji Jiu slowly turned around and looked at the "Original No. [-] Artist in Osaka" who appeared behind Ji Jiu at some point and was kneeling on one knee just now.

"Master Yoshiemon and the others have searched all along that river." Chuguang said softly, "We still haven't found Ogata Issai."

"Haven't you found it yet?" Yoshihisa's expression was calm, as if he had expected this result a long time ago, "The surprises that Ogata Ittosai brought us are one after another. Is there anything else to report?"

"It's gone." Chuguang said.

"Chuguang, I have a new mission for you."

"new task?"

"Don't be a messenger anymore, you also go to find Ogata Yidaosai."

"Damn it, Yoshikyu"

Mrs. Luo, who was still cursing, returned to her temporary residence.

Her temporary residence is a small room in Longshui Temple. The layout of the room is quite simple, with almost no furniture, only a few cushions, and a knife holder in the corner of the room. A sword and a wakizashi.

Mrs. Luo, who returned to the room, looked at the two knives on the knife rack, and her eyes softened immediately.

She walked slowly to the side of the knife holder, and raised her hand to caress the two knives on the knife holder.

"I really want to use my two new knives quickly to help Lord Toyotomi."

The two knives being caressed by Mrs. Luo are very beautiful in appearance. The hilts and scabbards are made of blue and gold.

Chapter 673 The Reunion of Ogata and Isshiki 【5300】

"Looking for Ogata Yidao Zhai?" Chu Guang was taken aback.

"Ogata Ittosai is the person whom Toyotomi personally ordered to kill him."

Jijiu withdrew his gaze from Chuguang's body and turned it back to the window.

"However, the current encirclement and suppression against Ogata Yidao Zhai is not going well."

"Ogata Yidaosai's strength far exceeds our expectations."

"Saiweimon and the others have searched up and down the river where Ogata Ittosai fell, but they haven't found any trace of him until now."

"If you let him escape from Osaka, it will be troublesome. If you want to find him again, you don't know where to look for him."

"So I decided to call out some ninjas to join in the search for Ogata Ittosai."

"And Chuguang, you are one of the people added."

"Good job, Chuguang."

"If you can, try to make some achievements."

Ji Jiu paused for a moment, and then turned his gaze from the window to Chuguang.

"Many people have criticized you recently."

"What do you mean that Chuguang was raised by Lord Jijiu alone, and he was personally taught by Master Jijiu, but he has not made any great achievements until now."

"Although such gossip makes me feel very harsh, I have to admit that what they say is indeed reasonable."

"Ever since you officially served the organization a year ago, you haven't achieved much."

"Let you disguise yourself as a musician and lurk in Osaka, and you have not obtained any particularly valuable information for the organization."

"You are my closed-door disciple. If you don't have any achievements that you can show off, then it is really too shameful."

"So you must give me your best tonight and do your best to make some achievements."

"In this way, those idlers who like to chew their tongues can also be a little quieter."

"Try to prove to these idlers that you don't have a pretty face just for nothing."

Ji Jiu, who had always kept his face cold and expressionless, turned his mouth up slightly at this moment, and a little smile appeared in Ji Jiu's eyes with the upturn of his mouth.

"Yes!"

Chu Guang buried his head low, and said in a respectful voice.

"I will fulfill my mission!"

Jijiu waved his hand towards Chuguang.
